Hopefully our boy will drive this to high school just like I did. We're the original owners, real Roadrunner, 33,000 miles, B5 blue with blue interior, 340/727 but we will big block it.

Or if someone wants to buy it...............Times are tough right now.

This is what I work on in my spare time... 38 Ply
440 powered, 727, 9", 4-link. I need to finish the
interior AGAIN(didnt like it). This is now a 3 seater
(tubs are the arm rests for the back seat). I have a
blower for it but I dont want to cut the original
hood.... so I might make one

Re: Lets see your race & Street Strip car builds in process - 01/06/09 02:04 AM

Its not really a "build" because I've never had the facilities to completely tear a car down and go through the whole thing. Heck I did not even have a garage until 2007. It's starting to get a little more cramped in the 2-car now with the air compressor, second rollaway etc (not pictured) but it's way better than what I had before.



God willing, I'll be able to get a detached shop built in the future and will be able to get more into the "build" aspect of things. At least sheetmetal, paint, and interior anyway which is all the car actually needs besides a 10 second ET.

Here is a picture of my street/strip '73 Duster I have been working on. As you can see it is still on my frame jig. The car has been back halfed with ladder bars narrowed Dana 60 and it will have 31 x 18-1/2 Mickey's on the back. The car will be powered by 526 Hemi with a nitrous works plate kit. The process is slow going - but moving along.

New C/Moly double frame going in for advanced ET duty, after removing the one the so called 'pro shop' cobbled together

Also had to convert my girlfriends old apartment into a garage by knocking out the front window, and installing a garage door in it's place so i have a place to weld and work on it..... (notice the carpeted floor) the kitchen and bathroom are off to the left

Re: Lets see your race & Street Strip car builds in process - 01/06/09 05:46 AM

I took these on my phone, so please excuse the quality


I'm re-doing this now


I picked these up for a good deal, just have to make them fit, lol

The plan was originally a mini tub and ladder bars which has now turned into a 3/4 chassis 4 Link. Just have to decide whether I am going to go 2 x 3 to the 4 Link brackets or a full tube 3/4 chassis. It will keep me busy nonetheless!
Power will be from a R5/P7 engine from Rick Liuzzo, a 904 trans by myself with a Phurd Aluminium 9" with 40 spline axles. Still alot to do!

Hi Ron
that's what I thought too, I didn't build the motor, the guy bought it that way, they took it all apart to inspect it, I think I would have lopped of the tops of the pistons, we'll see how it works, he's a cpa, and said hell I'll run the racing gas no problem!

The same project for quite a while now. Currently working on an engine upgrade to 572" alum. Hemi. Still a lot of body and paint work to do.
I like seeing these other projects coming along!

Got my '66 back from the body shop in Sept of '06. After taking the first month to put some of the car together, I just cannot get motivated to finish it. It's a factory Hemi car with a 4 speed. I was building it to run NSS, complete with a nasty 540 with all the goodies, but have since changed my mind and really don't know what to do with it at this point. The sad part is that I have built dozens of cars for others and just cannot get motivated(or slow enough ) to finish my own junk. Put me also in the "money is tight" situation. if I don't finish it by late spring, then perhaps it's time to let er go
